I need to get sources for the Linux version of certain programs that
reside in a package called "bsdutils".  I have built and installed
the "apt-get" program and now I'm just trying to use it, and things
are going very badly indeed.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here?  The errors I am
getting are shown below, and here are the current contents of my
/usr/local/etc/apt/sources.list file:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# See sources.list(5) for more information, especialy
# Remember that you can only use http, ftp or file URIs
# CDROMs are managed through the apt-cdrom tool.
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick main restricted contrib 
non-free

# Uncomment if you want the apt-get source function to work
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick main restricted contrib 
non-free
-----------------------------------------------------------------------


Here's what happens when I try to fetch the sources:


% apt-get source bsdutils
